The Second Coming of George

[jducoeur]

So I flipped on the TV for a bit while grabbing a bite of dinner, and here's a special: "Sarah Silverman/Jesus Is Magic". And my reaction is absolutely clear: George Carlin has been reincarnated as a pretty brunette. It's a *very* odd juxtaposition...

George Carlin is dead???

[jducoeur]

Well, no. Why should a little thing like that stop him? We're talking about the man best-known for his lack of respect for convention. I wouldn't expect still being alive to prevent him from being reincarnated.

(Okay, okay -- she's George Carlin's secret female clone...)

OK, Whew, no heart attack. Duncan and I love watching his stuff (and listening to his books on tape) and I panicked for a moment there...

Have you seen The Aristocrats yet? Because if you haven't, you really must...

So I gather. It's not really msmemory's style, though, so I need to find a good opportunity to see it...

I lost my DVD, so I bought another, and threw away the old case.

Then I found the old DVD. You may have it, if you wish.

That would be delightful! Let's find some time we're in the same place, and I'd be happy to have it. Thanks!

Amen to that. It has a strong likelihood of being the funniest thing you've ever heard. And it will be, no question, by far, the filthiest.

And the weirdest thing about it is this: it's the same joke -- the same really weak joke -- told over and over, a little differently every time. It's a convincing study in the comic theory that delivery is everything. I could even post the joke here (but I won't) and you'd still laugh your ass off all through the film.
